Thank you, Well said!The lions share of driving is actually more about courtesy than "rules". Plain and simple.
Whether you like it or not, you ARE the slower traffic of which you speak. And your rationale that you can't be the 'slower' traffic because no one's hit you in the rear end yet made me laugh out loud. Darlin', it's because their using this thing called BRAKES so that they DON'T hit you. Face it...people in the left hand lane speed and drive faster than 65. That's between them and their police officer.
You are not in control of someone else's speed. I get the very distinct impression that you're driving in the left hand lane because you're incredibly passive/aggressive. YOU feel that YOU can and will control other peoples driving. What you're doing is causing road rage and...in time...you are going to cause an accident. All because you think you need to be 'right'.
No..while it may not be entirely illegal for you to drive in the left hand lane going slower than all the other traffic around you, it does indeed make you a jerk. Like it or not. Really...why wouldn't you move over? Wait...don't tell me...you're also the person in the right hand lane at an on ramp that even though you CAN move to the left, you refuse to do so because you don't HAVE to. (No, you're not required to yield, the oncoming traffic is required to safely "merge"...but still) Yep...ya gotta be right. That's all that matters.
Hope you and the others involved survive the accident YOU cause....by being "right".
Not that is an right for anyone to speed, but it's more courtesy that will save your life and avoid an accident.
To the OP: Next time you see an 18 wheeler jump the curb and coming direct into your lane keep going forward and keep thinking your are in the right lane and don't move. You'll be right!
